The Free Software Directory is a project of the Free Software Foundation (FSF) and United Nations Education, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO). We catalog useful free software that runs under free operating systems — particularly the GNU operating system and its GNU/Linux variants.

Ten most recently updated entries in the directory . . .

eZ publish - [The GNU General Public License, Version 2] - 2006-05-09 00:00:00.000

ok i have
php 4.4.1
MySQL 4.0.18
phpMyAdmin 2.7.0
perl, v5.8.3
Apache
on a FreeBSD server

it come back in the install that i have to chmod setting. var var/something but i can only chmod in numbers ie 777 755 and the rest, but when i did 777 for settings, it still says it is incorrect.
then i got Fatal error: eZ publish did not finish its request

The execution of eZ publish was abruptly ended, the debug output is present below.

whats that? i dont have Shell access,
my friend had a go and it failed to. i am just uploading the whole thing again because it compleated the install, but the database had errors, and the installer would'nt restart, so i have to upload everything again.

it's really is a shame, because it look like what i want, and it uses search engine friendly URL's and i am told it is easy to add things to it and i would have really like to try it out, but if i cant install it, i am not going to get that chance.

php-nuke does not do some of the basic things i would have thought a CMS would, ie: you cannot have the content listed in alfabetical order, only in created order, and that makes my site look cheap or a child has made it.

i can use html and php so this would have really been better for me

hi Tim
ok this is day 4 of trying to install 3.7.6 or 3.8 we have tried both 7 times now,
1st thing i'll tell you what we tried and results,

3.7.6 failed on install because off setting,

found the following :
If the following directories do not exist, please create them e.g. with your ftp program.

var/cache/ini

var/cache/texttoimage

var/cache/translation

var/cache/template/tree

var/cache/template/process

var/log

Please set the permission of the following directories to 777, e.g. with you ftp program.

var/cache/texttoimage

var/cache/translation

var/cache/ini

var/log

Set the permissions of the following directories including ALL subdirectories to 777.

var/storage

settings

Set the permissions of the following files to 666.

var/log/error.log

var/log/warning.log

var/log/notice.log

<b> var/log/notice.log was missing</b>
<b>var/cache/template/tree
var/cache/template/process also missing.</b>

makes me wonder what other files are missing.

added:
<b>php_value magic_quotes_gpc 0

php_value register_globals 0</b> to the .htaccess file as the installer said

when going though the install, i pick corprate site, and then get this message:

<b>Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in /home/asksam2c/public_html/ez376/kernel/classes/ezpackage.php on line 2098
Fatal error: eZ publish did not finish its request</b>

same error no matter what package you choose.

<b>3.8</b>
managed to get installer to 92% complete, but fails on last step, times out in IE and returns a blank page in FireFox
both make the database, but the site fails to be setup

<b>* EZSW-004Failed inserting data to mysql
Table 'ezapprove_items' already exists ------------<<<<<fixed this
* EZSW-040Failed to initialize site package 'corporate_site'<<<<<<<why this?</b>

the we did a manual install of 3.8 without the installer, site and database run, but with errors.
but now that returns to the setup wizard

ok i have
php 4.4.1
MySQL 4.0.18
phpMyAdmin 2.7.0
perl, v5.8.3
Apache
on a FreeBSD server
php memory is set to 30mb
i know this because the server will not play movies that are over 30mb, ie they play but end at 30mb into the movie
